In Halo 3, 'teabagging' is a form of bragging used to humiliate other players you have killed in multiplayer. Despite its nature as being a frowned upon practice, teabagging can be fun between friends and add an extra element of revenge and angst to your games, especially if someone was doing it to you earlier in the match. It is easy to do and can provide a needed morale boost to you and your team, so read on to discover how to master the teabag.

Steps

1

Decide whether you should or shouldn't teabag. Remember, it's a frowned upon practice that may upset or anger your opponent - after all, you've killed them, do you really need to rub it in more? If someone has been doing it to you in the match and you want revenge, it is understandable, but most people will think you are a big-head or loser if you teabag without provocation, so decide carefully.

2

Get a kill in multiplayer if you decide that you will teabag someone. Any kill will do, but teabagging is usually performed as a form of bragging and humiliation to your opponents, so a good kill will work much better, especially if it is with a low-level weapon such as a Magnum.

3

Locate the person's body you just killed and stand over it. Make sure you get there fast as there is only a limited amount of time before the player's screen cannot watch it any more, so time is of the essence. Getting to a player's body may be difficult if you killed them long-range or with an explosive weapon, which may fling the body anywhere.

4

Press down the Left Joystick repeatedly, as if crouching up and down, with your character. This is called teabagging, named after a sexual act which couples perform. You may choose to crouch up and down slowly or rapidly - it's your choice.

5

Try a different style of teabagging. Try hitting your opponent's body with the B button or crouching up and down and moving the Left Joystick around as if you are grinding. Shooting the body may also work, but will waste your valuable ammo.

6

Move on. You do not want to teabag for more than 3-5 seconds, as after this time, your opponent won't be watching any more as they will have spawned and you risk being killed by another player. People are more likely to kill you if you are teabagging one of their team mates, so take care.

Tips

Be prepared to face the repercussions of your actions - remember, teabagging is an aggressive action and is quite hurtful to some people, so be prepared to have the teabagging returned or for the player to place negative feedback on your profile.

When someone yells at you for teabagging, say "I wasn't teabagging, I was just performing a victory ceremony on this players face."

Refrain from teabagging if you are losing by quite a bit, unless you make a particularly spectacular kill on their top player. People will think you are silly since you are losing.

For added humor, spin your character (push right analog stick left or right) while teabagging.

Use the teabag sparingly - use it too often and it loses its effect. Certainly do not teabag from the start of the game.

Warnings

Be prepared for people to think you are immature and no fun to play with and to receive lots of negative feedback. Teabagging is against the spirit of the game - you've killed them, you really don't need to rub it in.
